I just want to introduce myself!

I have changed my name and created a new account. SorrybushisfromTexas was an all right name but comparing him to Trump makes George a little presidential. A long time member who mainly read but never posted much! Trump has made me get off my butt. I joined our local Indivisible group and am starting to go to protests which I haven't done since the early 70's. Trump has awakened a sleeping Giant. We just need to keep the Giant awake for the good of our world!

I've never been in activism because in Texas there just isn't much in the way of local focused activities. I love our group because we meet close to my neighborhood, but we also participate in city events.
